"Milling Around" Downtown Clinton

On May 17, 2012, the new public art piece Milling Around by artist Heidi Lippmann was formally dedicated at a ceremony held in downtown Clinton, North Carolina. Located at the apex of College Street and Main, the 7 panes of colored glass were inspired by an old abandoned millstone found about a hundred yards away behind the Law Office of Andrew Jackson on the East bank of the Cat Tail Branch. Commissioned by the City of Clinton to create the public art piece, Lippmann says she chose the millstone as a “metaphor for how a town evolves.”
